[origin: WO0100948A1] A shape conforming surface covering useful for covering any type of surfaces, and comprising planks (1, 2) or sheet of a plastic or flexible material adapted to be interconnected aside of each other thereby forming an assembled surface covering of optional length and width, and which planks (1, 2) or sheet are of a material that can be brought to curved formations, and which at the upper surface of the covering is roughened, for instance sanded or filed so as to imitate any unique grain effect of wooden material. Preferably the planks (1, 2) or sheet are formed with connection means (4, 5) at the longitudinal edges thereof. The surface covering may be an assembled unit comprising planks (1, 2) and caulking elements (3) between each pair of planks.
